From the Mason & Rice archives, comes this great shot of the entire staff (I’m assuming just the office staff) of Hiram Walker & Sons, gathered on the lawn behind the office on Riverside Drive in 1893.

Have a great weekend everyone, see you back here Monday.

    Oh yes, without a doubt that is Hiram Walker on the left hand side. I wonder which gentlemen are his sons? (Edward, Franklin, James etc) Edward Chandler later built Willistead Manor and I am sure he is one of the men in this picture! I wonder which one …. ?
